[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does this happen to everyone or just some people? And is it independent of activity?

I’m 42 and I didn’t know this was around the corner :-( [/quote]

I am also 42. It is not independent of activity. Make sure you lift weights and stay generally active (walks, hikes, doing errands on foot etc) and you will be fine. I maintain at about 2400 calories. [/quote]

Maybe at 42.  Maybe not at 45+.  [/quote]

Or maybe not ever.  Some of us can eat what we want and not gain.  Every body is different.  [/quote]

I agree with this. The real danger here is that as you get older and eat less, you can lose significant amounts of weight, which is not actually good, either. My grandmother ate like a horse for much of her life and was rail thin. As she became elderly, her appetite declined and she became very very thin, which was a problem when she encountered some health problems. Probably it’s best to have a teeny bit of padding so you have something to lose if you become ill.[/quote]
